Kitchen - The Heart of The Home



We Indians are divided by different food cultures and are united by the love for their delicious outcomes. When I visited the CKP Food Festival in Thane and witnessed the tremendous response it received, I realized that 'the traditional, culinary classics' still rule our platters and hearts. We are also fond of those dishes that belong to other Indian food cultures. And nowadays, our hearts and platters have whole heartedly welcomed specialities from other parts of the world as well. It comes as no surprise then that in such a food loving country one of the most liked hobbies is cooking. And those who love cooking, love their kitchens!


When it comes to the kitchen, in almost every case, lady of the house is 'the boss'. Our experience at AAkruti Interiors says that for her, the kitchen is more than just a room. It is that place in the house where she pursues her passion, displays her managerial abilities and masters the skills and tricks to rule the hearts of her family members. Over the last few years of our interior designing experience, we have observed her thoughtful involvement in the decision-making process while setting or renovating the kitchen. Amenities, convenience, specifications related to colour and material and budget - all these and many more aspects are thoughtfully considered by her. We, too, have respected the significance her kitchen holds for her and have always successfully addressed the challenges of designing and developing the kitchen that accommodates all the amenities she desires while considering her convenience and aesthetic aspects.


The project that we have most recently accomplished is a kitchen that can be crowned as the most remarkable kitchens we have designed so far. We at AAkruti Interiors, designed the kitchen is such a manner that in spite of having lesser space there is a provision for built-in hob, chimney, microwave, idli batter maker, under counter RO water purifier, dish washer and other regular kitchen appliances. The platform is made up of a special material that enables shifting the whole platform if there arises a need to move to a newer residence. In addition to the main platform, a service platform is also incorporated in the kitchen to enable the helping hands function smoothly. Space for storage plays a crucial role in determining the utility of the kitchen. We not only provided our client with enough storage space but also installed slow motion baskets, drawers and pull-outs for storing some of the routinely required stuff. Such units get closed automatically with a gentle push - a bliss during the crazy rush every morning. To give the kitchen a novel look, a vertical rolling shutter has been installed. Bigger, chequered tiles that we used on the kitchen wall enabled to lessen the joints and enhance the aesthetic appeal of the kitchen. 


Like every other assignment, our aim for this project was to more than satisfy our client. We have tried our best for the 'wow' response... and we believe that we have succeeded. After all we know that the kitchen is the heart of the home where lady of the house serves love.
